About Us
Lao Souvenir: Preserving the Heritage of the Land of a Million Elephants.
Lao Souvenir was born from a deep respect for the biodiversity and cultural richness of Laos. From the mist-covered peaks of Phongsaly to the volcanic plains of the Bolaven Plateau, we traveled across the country to find the 'hidden gems' of Laotian craftsmanship.
We realized that the world was missing out on the incredible purity of Laotian ingredients—like our wild-harvested Mackkhen and high-altitude Oolong teas. Our journey is not just about commerce; it is about storytelling. Every product in our collection carries the DNA of the village it came from and the hands that crafted it.
Direct Sourcing, Fair Futures.
We believe in a 'Forest-to-Table' and 'Loom-to-Living-Room' philosophy. By working directly with small-holder farmers and ethnic minority artisans, we eliminate unnecessary middlemen. This ensures that the value stays within the local communities, preserving ancient weaving techniques and sustainable agroforestry practices that have existed for centuries.
